Nov. 16. The MOUNT SHASTA - A sudden drop in temperature is thought to have been a contributing fac tor in a petty theft in Mount Shasta last week and a longer stay than planned in Siskiyou County by two visitors. These were James Calvin and Julian Ray Sivley, of Los Angeles, and Colorado Springs, respectively. Tuesday morning when the brothers awoke to resume their travel, they discovered snow all over everything and getting deeper by the minute. Each added a blanket to his baggage then checked out. They went south where they probably wouldn't have needed the blan kets, anyway. ' But owners of the motel, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Priddy, did. Their motel was filled each night with guests from the Ski Bowl who probably still shivered after going to bed. The thieves left their car li cense number and other infor mation on the register, and so the long arm of the law brought them back before they got far, and Judge John Kinstry wrote a chapter in their travelogue. The judge wanted these bovs to become acclimated before again getting caught in a bliz zard. He gave each 30 days in Siskiyou County Jail in lieu of a cash fine they were well equipped to and apparently wanted to pay. it splits into two roadways one on each bank. As the route approaches Gasquet Post Office, it reverts to a single roadway. generally along the existing nignway. The recommended route is the "Red-Blue-Orange-Red" combi. nation of alternates discussed at a public hearing held by the uivision ot Highways in Cres cent city on uct. 4. Save the Redwoods Womack called the Commis sion's attention to his recom mendation of the "Blue" alter nate in the vicinity of Jedediah Smith State Park despite its greater length and higher cost man a line along tne existing highway which traversed more park area. "The Blue line's compatibility with and enhancement of scenic and park values outweigh these cost disadvantages," he said. "Recognizing that California's irreplaceable natural resources such as tne Jedediah Smith Ked woods must be protected to the greatest extent practical, it is believed that the adoption of the Blue Line will be in the total public interest." Similarly, he noted that while the recommended "Orange" al ternate east of the state park, which provides for separate roadways on either side of the river, is longer than a single- roadway alternate, "it would afford greater protection to the natural resources of the Smith River Canyon." Hearings Possible The commission requested Womack to ask the Del Norte County Board of Supervisors and tne city council of Crescent City u ik TviBiiea uiv tumiui&siuil 1L- self to hold a public hearing on tne matter. Plans of the Division of High' ways call for an ultimate four lane facility with full control of access for the 16.2 mi e seo tion at a cost of about $22,850.- uuu including rights of way, Start of construction would de pend on the availability of fu ture nignway funds.
